The Burbank Cottage is a late nineteenth century home with elements of Queen Ann and Stick styles, situated on over an acre in the popular Tockwotton Historic District. Constructed in 1885 by Evelyn Burbank as a winter cottage, the home has unique architectural elements including the two-story gambrel roof, a three-story tower, and an orangery set in the main house, which was a fashionable safe haven for citrus fruits during the winter during the 19th century. A wonderful renovation opportunity, the home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, formal dining room, living room, and study. The interior detailing is spectacular with board and batten paneled walls, heart pine flooring, and custom millwork found throughout. A large open kitchen is flooded with natural light and overlooks the deck area and beautifully landscaped yard beyond. Other amenities included a two-bay garage with work shop and tremendous storage as well as an orchid house. The oversized lot offers tremendous privacy yet is just a short stroll from Thomasville’s historic downtown. For more information on this exceptional offering please contact our firm.
